GIRLS who got down on the dance floor in aid of charity hope to make it a regular activity.

The Oxygen Project run by the Winsford-based Orchard Christian Fellowship held a dance event at Woodford Lodge High School sports centre last week for girls aged 11-16 to raise funds for an African building project.

The girls were taught street and hip-hop from Mid-Cheshire College's dance group and salsa by Winsford teacher Corina Baker.

Oxygen Project secretary Maggie Anderson said: 'We want to say a big thank you to the people who attended and to the dance

teachers who gave their services for free. It was a great success and a lot of people turned up.

'The feedback from the girls was really positive and they want to do more dancing. We aim to set up a weekly dance event with a talk shop to build relationships for the girls and deal with other issues.'
